Changing lighting but client-sided

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I will keep my writing short, I’m trying to change lighting properties client-sided when player touches the parent. (part that the script is in it)
Server sided code works perfectly but I need to know how can I turn this scripts into a client-sided script?
My code:

    local light = game.Lighting
    script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(part)
    	local humanoid = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    	if humanoid then
    		light.FogEnd = 100000
    		
    		light.FogStart = 0
    		
    		light.TimeOfDay = 14.5
    		
    		light.Brightness = 2
    		
    		light.FogColor = Color3.fromRGB(0,0,0)
    		
    		light.Ambient = Color3.fromRGB(165,165,165)
    		light.OutdoorAmbient = Color3.fromRGB(165,165,165)
    	end
    end)

You can just suggest me a method or just s e n d t h e w h o l e c o d e

Your script wouldn’t change that much when changing into a localscript, just remember localscripts does not run in workspace.

You can use a RemoteEvent, fire it to the client and make the changes there.

LocalScripts can’t run in the workspace, only in places like StarterPlayerScripts or StarterGui.

You’ll need to store your part as a variable like this: local myPart = workspace.my.directory.

You would probably want to, make a remote event in replicated storage, and fire the client through the server, with :FireServer() in a server script in Server Script Service

And take the event on the client side, by:
.OnClientEvent in a local script in StarterGUI

And connect a function to it, and then change the lighting however you wish.

Make a localscript in startergui and define the part as the location in workspace

aa ok I changed the code but didn’t work

local light = game.Lighting
local part = game.Workspace.Part
part.Touched:Connect(function(touchpart)
	local humanoid = touchpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if humanoid then
		light.FogEnd = 10000 --default 10000

		light.FogStart = 0 --default 0

		light.TimeOfDay = 12 --default 12

		light.Brightness = 2 --default 2

		light.FogColor = Color3.fromRGB(165,165,165) --default 165,165,165

		light.Ambient = Color3.fromRGB(165,165,165) --default 165,165,165
		light.OutdoorAmbient = Color3.fromRGB(165,165,165) --default 165,165
	end
end)

Strange, your Humanoid may be nil.

Try adding random prints everywhere so you can debug?

Script can sense if player touches the part so the problem is that the changes are server sided.

Just realized It won’t work since Roblox removed filtering enabled property.
I have to use remote events WHICH TAKES TIME
